Sensations in Space and Time (the experience/entanglement of phenomena and idea)

Agency/Foraging/Making/Gathering

Subjectivity is relational (always in process)

Person

Environment



For Merleau-Ponty, Experience can only be understood between the mind and the body or across them in their lived conjunction.



The mind is always embodied, always based on corporeal and sensory relations.

Paintings/Enactments : Canvas as a spatial verb



Espace-Milieu, painting as environment/entanglements and situations


Ceramic/Process and its theoretical objects

As a series of practices, making reality by bringing things together or separating them into their singularities, or making machines/desiring machines


Desire can be seen as an Actualization

Gathering Notations : Bernard Tschumi


Both presence and absence are coupled in this framework

Deleuze/Guattari


Glass/GLAS : Resistivity/Inclusions, A Field in England.

Translucent aesthetics, beyond the opacities of the sensible the rational.


An image that adequately expresses both the efficacy and the temporariness of the phenomena ( joining a diffused/invisible flow of energy, a breadth that wends its way ceaselessly through the world). Animating it as it goes.
